Step by Step

  1. This exercise works your gluteals, quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, back and even your upper body.
  2. It is a great functional exercise for rehabilitation of some back, hip, knee and ankle injuries
  3. From a standing position, with your feet between hip and shoulder width apart.
  4. Have the bar over your mid-foot,
  5. Bend your hips and knees to reach and grab the barbell at shoulder width apart
  6. Your lower back should be straight and your heels should stay in contact with the floor
  7. Next lift the barbell up by straightening your hips and knees,
  8. Keep the bar pulled towards your shins, using your lats and squeeze your shoulder blades together through out
  9. At the top squeeze you buttocks to fully extend your hips but do not extend your lower back
  10. Next slowly lower the weight back down by bending mostly your hips and only slightly from the knees, your lower back should be straight and your heels should stay in contact with the floor
  11. Once your hamstring cannot allow any more hip movement then reverse direction back to the top
  12. Complete your reps then the final rep bend the knees to lower the bar along your shins to the mid foot start position.
  13. For strengthening you should perform 6-10 reps to fatigue
  14. You should perform 3-5 sets with 3 minutes rests

Online Physiotherapy

Put simply this is Physio done via either telephone or video over the internet. Skype and facetime are examples of this.

Contrary to popular belief online physiotherapy can be very effective and it can help the same injuries that face to face physio can help. I have helped many people with injuries such as disc prolapses, tennis elbow, neck pain and much more).
